WordPress website design Reading.
Flexible WordPress websites that are easy to manage
We mostly design websites using WordPress, giving businesses a flexible and easy way to manage their website content. 58.3% of websites with a known CMS use WordPress! WordPress web development is something we have been doing since the day we started.
WordPress is ideal for everything from small business websites to larger sites that need room to grow. It works well across all devices and gives us the freedom to build a bespoke website design around your business rather than forcing you into a fixed template. Bespoke WordPress websites are built to reflect unique brand identities.
If you want to manage your own content, we can show you how to update text, images and pages after launch. And if you would rather leave it to us, we can provide support and website updates. Our technical expertise and digital strategy help us build WordPress websites that are easy to manage, perform well and support your business goals.


Website support & maintenance.
Ongoing support to keep your website running smoothly.
We offer website maintenance and support for businesses that want their site kept secure, updated and working properly.
Our website management packages can include plugin updates, security checks, content changes, new pages, technical support, SSL management and performance improvements.
We can also provide fast and reliable website hosting, and the first year of website hosting is free with support services.
Choose the level of support that suits your business, from simple monthly maintenance to more hands on website management.
Web design cost.
Affordable website design for different needs and budgets.
We develop websites at a range of price points, from simple and affordable website design for small local businesses to larger bespoke web development work with more complex requirements.
Every project is priced around the work involved, so you only pay for what your business needs. We keep our web design pricing clear, with no hidden extras.
Whether you need a straightforward business website or a custom website with more advanced features, we can recommend the right option and explain the costs before work begins.
You can view our web design pricing for a general guide, or contact us for a quote based on your project.


We design websites around your users.
Creating accessible, user friendly websites that look great and feel effortless to use.
A website needs to do more than look good. Focusing on user experience is essential for effective web design. Most designers adopt a ‘mobile first’ approach in web design. We do the same, making sure your website works just as well on a phone as it does on a desktop.
We also believe everyone should be able to use your website comfortably. Accessibility includes designing websites usable by people with disabilities. The widely used accessibility principles focus on perceivable, operable, and understandable content. This means keeping navigation simple and making information easy to find.
It’s often the smaller details that make the biggest difference. Visual hierarchy guides the user’s eye through a page. Whitespace reduces cognitive load and prevents visual clutter. Good typography improves readability and prevents eye fatigue. Together, these details make your website clearer, easier to navigate and more enjoyable to browse.
Web redesign / replacement.
Refresh an outdated website with a smarter design.
If your current website feels dated, is difficult to manage or no longer represents your business properly, a website redesign can give it a fresh start without changing everything unnecessarily.
We can redesign your website around your current brand, content and goals, improving the layout, performance and user experience along the way.
For older sites that need more substantial work, a website replacement may be the better option. We can rebuild the site on a modern platform, move across the important content and make sure everything works properly before launch.
Whether you need a straightforward website upgrade or a complete website replacement, we can help you decide what is worth keeping and what should change.
If it is time to replace your website, we can manage the whole process from planning and design through to development, testing and launch.

Web designer Reading FAQs.
Here are some frequently asked questions about our web designer services, costs and time frames.
How long does it take to build a website?
Most websites take around 3 to 8 weeks from planning to launch. The exact time depends on the number of pages, the complexity of the website design and how quickly content is supplied. We are happy to work at a pace that suits you.
How much does it cost to build a website?
Prices start at around £500 for a small, simple website. The final cost depends on the size, design and features required. We offer options for different budgets, from affordable websites for small businesses to more complex bespoke websites.
Can you replace my existing website?
Yes. We can design and build your new website while your existing site stays live, then replace it when everything is ready. We also take care to preserve important pages, content and SEO signals during the move, improving your digital presence in the process.
Will my website be mobile friendly and responsive?
Yes. Over 50% of web traffic comes from mobile devices. Every website we build has a fully responsive design and is made to work well across mobiles, tablets and desktop screens. A mobile friendly website can increase conversions by 20-30%.
Can I make updates to my website myself?
Yes. We build most websites with WordPress, so you can update text, images and pages yourself. We can also provide training, professional support, or ongoing design services if you need help.
What if I don’t know exactly what I want?
That is fine. We will talk through your business, customers and goals, then suggest the pages, content and features that would work best for your website.
